IN LONDON.
HI. III. Raglan Took His Audience
TO Points OfInterest Last Night.

The third of the series of lectures by
II. Ii. Raglan was given last evening at
Exposition rink, the subject being
''Here and There in London" The
subject is, to say the least, an interest
ing one, and Mr.. Raglan, by his subject
and aided by his illustrations, makes it
doubly so. AS an Introduction, the lee
turer referred to the fact that no Eng
disappearing person could approach
London without some feelings of emo
ton. Aside from its romantic associa-
tons, London is the stage upon which
great many tragic events have been
presented. London to-day has more
Scotchmen than Glasgow, more Irish
men than Dublin, and more Jews than
Jerusalem. A visitor will readily see
that the English of England and the
English of the United States are
two different things. Mr.. Raglan
began his illustration with views of the
cabs and omnibuses of London, and then
continued his journey through the city,
showing sights that occupy prominent
PLACES in history-the Buckingham
palnce, Albert'S monument, Charing
Cross, Trafalgar square, with its menu-
mcht Of England'S greatest admiral,
Nelson. chIple Bar, St. PauFs cathe-
dral, al.uac architecture is not beauti-

pany.
In it's production at the Grand last
evening MAY Blossom" gave evidence
of having been nipped by recent frost,
as all of the actors were hoarse from the
effect of having been driven Ell disha-
billie into the cold by the Brainard fire
Tuesday morning. Not understanding
the bad colds from which the princi-
pals were suffering the performance
was fairly smooth, and although the
audience was not overly large it was
appreciatige. May Blossom" is really
Il very pretty story and the plot is full
of strong dramatic situations. The
scene is laid down on the Chesapeake
Bay, and the heroine is Il plain country
girl who loves one man and marries
another under the impression that her
real lover is dead. 1t is not until the
first anniversary of her wedding that
ceived her respecting her lovers
she casts the husband from her heart
and he leaves his home. The story is
full of touching pathos, while inter
mingled with it is u lot OF good comedy
work. Miss May Hamilton gives a
pleasing Interpretation of The title role.
Miss Hamilton is a young actress with
the promise of bright future before
her. Mr.. BURNETT as Tom Blossom and
W. ii. CWmpt0n as Uncle Bartlett were
exceedingly clever in their re-
pectiyo parts. The rest of
the cast were what the wheat
men call from fair to middling," with
the exception of little Maud Thompson
and Jerry Welter, who are superb child
artists. The burial of the bird and the
hanging OF the cat by the children were
two of the most effective scenes of the
play. The same performance tonight.
Sale of seats for the Carleton opera
engagement opens this morning. The
repertoire includes 'Erminie, lebanon"
and merry War" A telegram from
Mr.. Carleton, dated at Omaha, to his ad-
vance agent in this city, yesterday,
stated that he had just received his new
costumes fer merry War;" and they
are the handSomeSt he ever saw.
The audience at the Grand last night
displayed remarkable co0lurSS when the
wing caught fire. Mr.. Stoddard, of the
company, did excellent work in sup
pressing the flames. He pulled off his
coat and went at it like fire veteran.
The MAY Blossom" company seems
to be fire fated. 1t was burned out at
Brainerd Tuesday morning, when the
Willard hotel was destroyed. Just after
It's arrival at the Ryan yesterday q fire
sroke out just across the street, and last
blight the stage scenery caught fire dur
ing the performance.

SOMETHING ABOUT HATS.
A Few ST. Paul Citizens Who
Have Put on Spring Headgear.

A Few ST. Paul Citizens Who
Have Put on Spring Headgear.
About this time in the year people of
the masculine gender usually cast off the
hats that have been doing them service
during the winter and early fall and top
themselves up with something new.
That is just what several prominent st.
Paul citizens are doing. They showed
up on the streets yesterday in such
peculiar looking headdreSSeS that they
were hardly recognizable by their most
intimate friends. The first man noticed
was Col. Allen. He came dancing up
Third street with an air of abandon that
made his friends suspicious of him. He
looked pleasant and airy, and as he
| tripped along loosely he hummed to
himself SnatcheS from 'Mikado." On
his head sat straw hat of 1859 brand.
1t was white in places, and had broad
band of black ribbon around it. One
! side of the rim hung over his ear, the
other side tipped UP at an angle of about
| 1852 Fahrenheit.
Amt a dandy:" said he, as he met DR..
~ Wen, I'll be darned if you amt" replied
| the doctor, with smile, rs he stopped and
gazed after the form OF the git:dy colonel.
TO one of his most intimate friends the
cOlOnel SAID THAT ne uldn propose TO
take that hat off until the st. Paul Ball
| club won game, if he had to sleep all
summer with it on.
NJ. j. Roche, Frank Brooks and G.. w.
Ryder stood up in a row in front of the
Merchants register yesterday afternoon.
All three wore three pretty tough-looh-
ing hats of the long black variety. Ehle
Allen said, Boys, if you will let me
send those hats up to the shop. I'll have
them brushed up at my expense. What
do you Saya'
1t suited the tree men, and three tall
hats came off simultaneously from three
very shapely and slick-Looking heads,
and a messenger boy the next minute
disappeared through the door with them.
Two hours later, when the three bare
headed men found that Ehl3 had gone
to Minneapolis and that no one knew to
what particular shop the hats had
had been taken, they suspected that
re affable Ehle had turned trick on
them. When they walked out on to the
street Roche wore a tWo-year old Derby
about three sizes too big for him that he
had borrowed from q guest. Brooks had
his head done up III wide-brinmati
SLOUGH, with hole in it, and Ryder
wore a dark gray plug with the top
broken in, that one of the clerks found
under the sofa.
